without the light rays this doesn't have quite the same impact as the original. Still cool to look at tho!

This a a beautiful photo. It is clear, crisp and clearly depicts the theme of this challenge "Classy Holiday Decorations". Worthy of a 9 in my opinion.

Wow I'm touched. One of my images.
After I took my image entry which was just a test shot, I saw it on my computer, & noticed some aspects I didn't like, so I spent the next 2 nights trying to reproduce it, but to no avail.
Well done, Good focus, clean straws, nice crop.

I don't know if this will accomplish your mission, but personally I like it because its kind of similar to one of my really old entries : )

A little self-promotion never hurt, eh? Or is that self-motivation?

Very catchy presentation. :)

I like the frame. Some I suspect will comment negatively on it. Overall the lighting was a bit problematic in this shot. The light is a bit harsh, and there's quite a bit of fall-off, with resulting uneven illumination. Colors are vibrant in the foreground, but along with the light, fades away.

interesting idea. have seen another broken pencil so far, but not quite as many as i expected. broken pencil just seems thrown in there, and not necessarily the main focus/theme of the image. perhaps would've rotated the pencil to avoid displaying the USA (2) symbols.
